Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book, a compilation of articles from the International Fisheries Exhibition of 1883, features discussions and insights from distinguished figures in the fishing industry, politicians, and scientists of the era. Its focus is on the fisheries of Norway, whose cod and herring fisheries were of global significance in the 19th century, providing insights into the state of the industry, fishing techniques, and the natural history of the Norwegian coast. The author, a Norwegian fisheries expert, delves into the importance of the warm water currents that create a temperate climate and an abundance of fish in the Norwegian Sea, and the unique characteristics of the cod and herring fisheries, which were largely based on the spawning habits of these species. He also examines the challenges faced by the industry, including the impact of overfishing and the need for conservation measures. Through a combination of historical analysis, scientific research, and practical experience, this book not only provides a valuable record of the Norwegian fisheries in the late 19th century but also offers insights into the complex relationship between humans and the marine environment, which remain relevant to this day.
